Falling for the Boss at Work

Serial begins January 31.

[Capybara-like employee x fiery catlike boss lady]

Qiao Anyi spent her vacation lazing around at home, drinking and dreaming her days away, living a carefree life of seclusion.

Unfortunately, those good times didn't last long. Her family got fed up and threw her out, telling her to find a job.

Every cheap summer job was already swamped with applicants.

She went from place to place, getting turned down until she was in a sorry state, and even began entertaining the terrifying idea of paying someone to let her work.

Just as she was about to give up,

she happened across a post on a social platform looking for a local companion to hang out with.

That wasn't especially unusual. The key point was:

It was paid work.

The pay was fair, and the work was easy.

And the boss who posted it was young, pretty, and a little rich.

Qiao considered herself a noble person who turned small acts of love into great ones.

It wasn't about the money. She mainly wanted to give the young woman some warm companionship.

After leaving a bold comment on the post, Qiao Anyi even attached a recent photo of herself.

She'd only done it for a laugh, and promptly forgot about it. But when she logged into her account later, she found a private message from the boss who'd made the post.

"I hear you want to be my girlfriend?"

For the first twenty-two years of her life, Rui Qiu followed a predictable, placid routine.

Her plan for the rest of her life was to study, work, and inherit the family business. To become a high-level cog in the machine.

She thought her whole life would be like that, until fate brought her Qiao Anyi.

This person could be so carefree it was maddening, and she often said thoughtless things that made Rui Qiu angry.

But she was remarkably perceptive and could always see through Rui Qiu's protestations.

When Rui Qiu felt helpless, she'd drive her to chase the last rays of sunset by the sea.

When Rui Qiu was sad, she'd kiss away the tears at the corners of her eyes and firmly tell her that she was the person most deserving of love in the world.

And so the dead wood bloomed again, and spring came.

On an ordinary workday, office worker Qiao Anyi was ambushed with a proposal, as if someone had broken into her home.

Flustered, she hurriedly recited her life motto: "Boss Rui, work and personal life shouldn't get mixed up..."

After slipping the ring onto her finger, Rui Qiu gently stroked Qiao Anyi's cheek and kissed her.

"What about now?"

Qiao Anyi wrapped her arms around her, looking aggrieved.

"Then I'll try applying for the position of boss's wife."

#The former boss personally applies for the job of boss's wife. Does this position have any career prospects?#

A story about two adorable people falling in love.

Here's the next book. If you're interested, please add it to your favorites~

Here's the blurb:

When the bright-eyed, clueless college student Wen Yue attends an elective, she has the good fortune to meet a famous campus celebrity.

The reason this senior is famous is simple: her face alone is enough to make everyone swoon.

They say she's also captain of the school's modeling team.

She's always at the school's arts events.

She's practically the walking face of the campus.

Wen Yue is flattered that such a gorgeous woman would deign to be friends with her, so she treasures the opportunity.

When the woman leans close to talk, Wen Yue thoughtfully reminds her that the weather is dry and she should remember to hydrate.

When they go out and share a bed, Wen Yue carefully buttons up the woman's pajama top, which she'd forgotten to fasten, and tells her to be careful not to catch cold.

She fusses over her and takes care of her, without even asking for a huge pile of money.

Whenever the woman looks grateful, Wen Yue puts her hands on her hips and secretly congratulates herself.

Oh my god!

There can't be a more considerate friend in the whole world!

Lan Xi fell for an idiot with a very unusual thought process.

Right before kissing her, the idiot earnestly launched into a skincare lecture.

In a dark room, alone together, Lan Xi stared at her with a gaze so resolute it could get her into the Party, while the idiot pulled a down jacket over her sexy nightgown.

"..."

Lan Xi silently drew her thick coat around herself and began to question her own appeal.

Was she not trying hard enough, or was this girl a straight woman at heart?

After waiting out the clouds, the moon finally appeared.

Thanks to someone's relentless efforts to steal her away, the slow-on-the-uptake Ms. Wen Yue finally got the message.

When the iron tree bloomed, she was often teased.

"I hear Ms. Wen is straighter than a steel rod."

"Not anymore." Wen Yue blushed and hid in Lan Xi's arms.

"After I met you, I wasn't anymore."
